Grand Junction and Shubbak Festival presents Olive Jar directed by Elias Matar A new theatre performance celebrating London's Arab communities and the extraordinary stories that ordinary people can tell 6-8 July Grand Junction at St Mary Magdelene, Rowington Close London W2 5TF Olive Jar Grand Junction and Shubbak Festival presents a new performance celebrating West London’s Arab communities and the extraordinary stories that ordinary people can tell. The olive tree roots us to our land, on our tables they offer hope as well as food. Like olives, our stories wait, hidden and preserved in their jars, to be shared. Some will be bitter, and others sweet. Olive Jar holds stories of winding journeys to a new place, of half-remembered memories passed down through the generations, of finding a little bit of home in a big city, and marks what changes and what stays the same. Live music from Palestinian singer Ruba Shamshoum. Performed in English with some parts in Arabic. 6 - 8 July 2023 Eves 8.30 pm, Sat matinee 4.30 pm Ticket prices: £12 and £6 concession 30% off for group bookings of 5 or more using code OLIVEJAR330
